We each have seven brains: the four lobes of the brain, the cerebellum, the heart, and the gut. Each has a separate function.

When I say Danwe lived in a vase, I mean he lived in a vase. That is to say, he never left. He had lived here all his life, all by himself. So what happens when Danwe finally leaves his vase and starts exploring? What will his world be like?

Consultants are sought more for their wisdom than for their advice. I try to help the client come to wise decisions rather than telling them what they should do - nobody likes to be told what they should do.

This book is not about chemical elements. I’m going to offer my apologies for that up front, as I know that might be disappointing to a few of you. Rather, this book is about the basic elements which make up the Earth, which make up each of us, which make up everything. These Elements go by various names depending on which element theory you reference. I’ll explain that later on in this book. Then I’ll use a standard naming convention for each of these Elements. This book is about the elements of earth, water, fire, spirit, and sky. It is also about the elements love and life.
